8.4/10 Very Good! (1,011 reviews)
Had to wait 40 min after check in time to get room. We were concerned since it was our anniversary and we had reservations that would have been in jeopardy if we had to waited 15 more min. However, we did not and we rushed it a bit and made it on time.. thoroughly enjoyed the few nights we stayed and next year on our anniversary we plan to add a day.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (245 reviews)
This is a great space. The home dates back to 1889, on a street with homes that date back that far or further. The decor is hippie/chic, it’s welcoming, warm, friendly. The location is awesome, historic downtown Wilmington is yours for the taking. I would highly recommend it and I would stay here again if I can.
